Jane at Levant: Hands across Land and Sea

Hands across Land and Sea

No pics just words - of utter relief - I have had a blip on my blog- everytime I opened my Comments Box my screen froze or I was unable to scroll up or down on the side bar. My blog is my lifeline - and a reliable release from daily stress - although not the case this weekend! I have spent a fair amount of time this weekend trying everything in desperation. Messages to Blogger - tried to set up a new blog - which I managed to duplicate - how do these things happen?! I have clicked on most everything available to try and resolve the problem - finally finding a edit the comments box - I found I had a tick against embedded - looking at choices available I ticked (pop up ) and that seemed to do the trick - so I now have a working blog again. My link with the world and precious blogging friends. The picture in my header is of the River Severn as it flows into Attingham Park - I am practising with my new Sony camera. I am adding a link to my gardening blog MARIGOLD - If Blogger allows of course!! - for any like minded gardeners out there.

Jane, your picture is lovely. Blogger have added a reply/delete button on the comments section which tends to freeze the screen when you try to publish so probably, nothing you've done anyway. Glad you've got your blog up and running again xxx

It works on some blogs and not on t'others.
Mine seems to escaped the bug, so has Molly's.
Luck of the draw Jane.
Although, saying that - I sometimes get problems if I use Internet Explorer as my browser - but everything works when I use Google Chrome.

FAIRY -LED

The fairy people flouted me,
Mocked me ,shouted me
They chased me down the dreamy hill and beat me with a wand
Within the wood they found me ,put spells on me and bound me
And left me at the edge of day in John the miller's pond
Beneath the eerie starlight;
Their hair shone curd -white
Their bodies were all twisted like a lichened apple tree
Feather -light and swift they moved,
And never one they loved,
For all were full of dreams and dark designs on me.

With noise of leafy singing
And white wands swinging
They marched away amid the grass that swayed to let them through.
Between the the yellow tansies
Their eyes,like purple pansies,
Peered back on me before they passed all trackless in the dew.

Mary Webb - from the Spring of Joy

Three softly curved white sepals veined with light,

Three green-lined petals,guarding frugal gold,

And all so strong to fold or to unfold!

Snow thunders from the bending pines.How slight

This frail,sheathed stem! Yet all unbent it springs,

So swift in stoopings and recoverings.

In the pale sunshine,with frail wings unfurled,

Comes to the bending snowdrop the first bee.

She gives her winter honey prudently;

And faint with travel in a bitter world,

The bee makes music, tentative and low,

And spring awakes and laughs across the snow.

Short Jokes of the day

Dress Code.

It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a raise. If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a raise. If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not need a raise.

Sick Days

We will no longer accept a doctor's statement as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.

Personal Days

Each employee will receive 104 personal days a year. They are called Saturday & Sunday.

Toilet Use
Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a strict three-minute time limit in the stalls. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the stall door will open, and a picture will be taken. After your second offence, your picture will be posted on the company bulletin board under the "Chronic Offenders category". Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sanctioned under the company's mental health policy.
Lunch Break
Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch, as they need to eat more, so that they can look healthy. Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure. Chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that's all the time needed to drink a Slim-Fast.
